Abstract
A general atom economic method for the isomerization of a broad range of N-allyl amides enables the synthesis of Z-di-, tri-, and tetrasubstituted enamides with exceptional geometric selectivity. Applications of these geometrically defined enamides toward the synthesis of cis vicinal amino alcohols and tetrasubstituted α-borylamido complexes are discussed.
